Kissing & Telling

You said I could come over
Then you made me wait in the hall
You had your family on the phone
And they don’t know this side of you at all
You said you wanted to kiss my lips
Tried to revive our June ember
But neither of us were sober
In the mornin' you said you didn’t remember
CHORUS
Kissin’ and Tellin’
That’s just another of my bad habits
Kissin’ and Tellin’
I hope I didn’t hurt you
Kissing and Tellin’, Kissin’ and Tellin’
My friends told me to let you go
Said you were just playin' a game
But I wouldn’t take good advice
‘Cause I was holding on hope you felt the same
I’d been looking to recreate
That first kiss against the club’s wall
Cause that’s a feelin’ I want back
Since I lost it I’ve been feelin’ so small
Wish I could hold your curves again
And smell your sweet perfume
What I’d give to watch your lips
As your Latin accent moves
[CHORUS]
I’m sorry I did that to you
Never wanted to hurt you
Kissing and Telling, Kissing and Telling

Demons

Had to move on, couldn't even say goodbye
Maybe that's a part of growing up and passing time
Keep looking back, but gotta leave the toxic behind
Now I've got all these feelings that I can't explain
And I wanna hold on to all of my demons,
'cause they've got a way of making me feel safe
CHORUS
And the highs may never feel as high as when I was low,
I was running on empty but I didn't know
I wanna keep growing but it's all I know
And it takes everything away, and now I'm here without you
I do my best work in my lowest places,
living in this space, no I don't see the faces
Too busy listening to the voices in my head,
wish I could go back, collect those words unsaid
And I wanna hold on to all of my demons, 'cause they've got a way of making me feel safe
[CHORUS]

Dangerous
03:57

When I was a kid I would dream of running away
Get as far as a plan, but always knew I would stay
‘Cause I knew my mom and my dad would come after me
They’d prop me up on the counter then bandage my knees
When I was thirteen, did what I could do to fit in
Not a bone in me felt right--didn’t fit in their skin
There was a long while that I let that tear me apart
It scattered my hope, it kept me stopped at the start
CHORUS
But I don’t know how to fly
Without closin’ my eyes
I’ve spent my life bein’ told
that the world is so dangerous
Be careful growin’ old
These days I’ve learned to stand up and follow my own heart
There’s nothin’ easy about it—I’ve had my false starts
Make no mistake, it’s harder when there’s no way to win
Hated the days when I thought had to keep it in
[CHORUS]
They said the world was so dangerous
Be careful growin’ old
But you know what is dangerous?
Doin’ what you’re told

Can you tell me how we got back here?
How are these old habits coming back?
The ghost that haunts this shell don’t care
So I get high and draw lilacs
When I look back I see I was sad
But back then it didn’t feel like that
So I would go empty and mad
Throughout the day my moods contrast
CHORUS
If I could tell you how we end up here
A generation, somehow hurt and scared
And it doesn’t seem like anyone cares
Sometimes I think summer will save me
And sometimes I let myself feel hope
The waves could take my sins to sea
My brain feels like a kaleidoscope
When I was young I tried to be good
If I strayed, thought I was intemperate
Every week in church and you would
Be the same and grow irreverent
[CHORUS]

For Now
02:30

Do you feel like you are free?
Do you see a light in here?
Because it's all draining me
Feelin’ older than I am
Will you hold me tight again?
Will you kiss me on my head?
When I see you, am i bein’ vain?
Cause I’m feelin’ alone now
CHORUS
And I could tell you every story I’ve lived
You know we’ve got all this time and space
But soon i’ll find my way to your place
And I try to find you in the mirror now
But it just leaves me feelin’ so loud,
Sometimes I don't hear what you say
Oh, but for now it’s gonna be this way
Wish I could watch your mind work
Wish I was inside your head
You’re patient even when I’m a jerk
Feel I’m runnin’ out of words
‘Cause I just need to hold you
Don’t want to talk on the phone
Tryin’ to settle into this point of view
Tryin’ to feel closer to you
[CHORUS]

Truth
02:59
|

|
There was a day when I found my truth,
You know that was the closin' of my youth
Said I could hold it deep inside,
And never would I gleam in my pride
Back then I thought they’d see something new
Didn’t think they could see me happy too
Thought their openness didn’t apply
To a girl that grew up under their eyes
CHORUS
But if I had the balls
I would tell everyone that I love
And if I wasn’t sure
She gave me what I had only dreamed of
and that was enough
Didn’t realize what I would give up
If I let sunday tales tell me I’d drop
Might start wanderin’ all over this world
But I’d come back with the same lesson learned
No it doesn’t help to hide yourself
Yeah chapters like this don’t stay on the shelf
And all of us go through the same thing
No matter how much we’re loved, it always stings
[CHORUS]

Subterranean
01:49
|

|
It's too easy to blame other people for my mistakes
It's too easy to be your underground part-time retreat
But I don't want to be someone's secret
You never let them see, the subterranean I free
My fault's my honesty, but with that I bring constancy
I'm tired of being an earnest secret
